There is an entry for Ryhall [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/TF0310/ryhall/] [accessed 23 July 2015], but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. Cox & Harvey (1907) list a baptismal font of the Early English period here. The Victoria County History (Rutland, vol. 2, 1935) notes: "The church which William Payn and Adanor his wife gave to the Priory of St. Andrew, Northampton, about 1108, was probably a rectangular building erected at that time covering the area of the present nave, with a small square-ended chancel. This church was, however, rebuilt early in the 13th century, when aisles were added, a new chancel built and a tower and spire erected at the west end. Of this work the nave arcades, the chancel arch, and the tower and spire still remain. [...] The font has a plain octagonal bowl on a short, circular stem and tall moulded 13th-century base. It has an 18th-century wooden cover."
